Last week you started doing small steps when someone is holding you. You can “walk” around 5 steps this way before you get tired or decides you don’t want to walk any more. It’s very cute!

Teeth? Weather?
Since we moved to Austin you haven’t been eating as well as you were in Seattle. We’re not sure if it’s because of the weather change or if your teeth are finally going to come out. We’re waiting (anxiously) for you to be back to normal – happily eating your meals.

Vegetarian in the making?
We added meat to your potato-carrot puree today. Seasoned with a little bit of garlic and onion, cooked in the olive oil and then pureed with your vegetables. You didn’t want to eat it. We’re not sure if it’s just because you haven’t been eating much these days or if you didn’t like the meat flavor. We’ll see.

Self Soothing: Squishing faces
While we try to get you to sleep, you like to squish mommy and my face, mostly trying to squeeze our noses, mouth, chin. If your nails are at all long, it can be a very painful experience. You need a better self soothing habit, soon!

Please stand up
A couple of days ago, you were sitting on the couch with me and wanted to see what was going on behind me, so you grabbed my arm (and arm hair) and pulled yourself up to a standing position! Yeah (and ouch).

Creeping forward
After a few weeks of creeping backwards all over the place, today you lunged forward to try and grab your grandma’s clothes that were on top of the mattress. Good job!
